It is hard to beat a good chocolate chip cookie – unless you take the same dough and add peanut butter M&Ms – and brown butter! Baking with brown butter is a game changer – it adds such a wonderful depth of flavor. If you haven’t tried it, you are missing out.

Bar cookies are so easy – just mix, put in your pan and bake. No scooping and waiting for each batch to bake. I used the recipe below with a few exceptions – I only made half a batch and I did not sprinkle the flaked salt on top.

I also gently pressed in a few extra M&Ms on top of the dough before I popped the baking dish in the oven. The extras just make your cookies look so pretty. Try this with holiday M&Ms too.

This makes a quick snack to make for your family – they will love these chewy cookie bars.

And it is always fun to share! Have fun baking this weekend!
